I am all about a healthy lifestyle and losing weight but this is a strange way to do it. These three guys from Buffalo NY started walking 9 months ago with the end goal of Los Angeles, CA. Jason Rogers was up to 478 pounds and needed to lose some weight before getting gastric bypass so he started walking around his neighborhood with his friend Chris who was up in the 300 pound bracket. According to The Buffalo News, one day Jason had the idea to skip the surgery all together and just walk 2,700 miles from NY to CA. Everyone thought it was a crazy idea except for Chris and Chris’s brother Joe who was unemployed and decided to go along on the journey. Jason had already lost 100 pounds before he set out on this cross country excursion and in the past 9 months since they started walking has lost another 68. Chris is down 39 pounds. They just recently made it to Arizona and walking about 20 miles a day, they are expected to reach LA in April. You can see a picture of them HERE.
